"We highly recommend Bergen Funeral Services/Hennessey Heights Funeral Home. Matt and Andrew were there for us every step of the way during this most difficult time. We had no idea what to do when crisis arose, and they answered our call, and walked us through every step, with confidence and compassion..."

"I never really thought about funeral homes until I had the need to use one. I was lucky to be referred to Bergen. They are kind and empathetic and take care of all the nonsense you don't want to deal when you loose someone you love."
